Capcom's highly anticipated Monster Hunter: Wilds arrives early next year on February 28. During this past September 24 Sony State of Play, Monster Hunter: Wilds was among the 20-plus games shown. Another highly anticipated title showcased was the sequel to Ghost of Tsushima.
February can’t come soon enough, still, if you're rig isn't quite ready, then it’s the right amount of time for you to prepare. Capcom unveiled the minimum and recommended PC specifications so we can play Wilds flawlessly. Spoiler alert: It is looking pretty demanding.
According to the game’s website, it requires 140GB of SSD storage space to run effortlessly. This is unfortunate for players who play both Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Monster Hunter: Wilds. A sacrifice must be made, unless you own a 1TB storage.

Players with beefy PCs will need either an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060, or AMD Radeon RX 6700XT for graphics card. This ensures that you are running Monster Hunter: Wilds at a full 1080p resolution and 60 frames per second (with Frame Generation enabled)

PC users on a budget will need graphics cards such as NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Super or AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT. These are necessary to run the game at minimum settings which is 30 frames per second and upscaled to 1080p. As for its processor, an Intel Core i5-10600, Intel Core i3-12100F, or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 is required.
Gamers who are still using an 8GB RAM will have to upgrade as well, considering that 16GB is now the standard for modern gaming.
The Sony State of Play event showed us more than enough to keep the hype train going. The three and a half minute trailer unveiled new monsters, including the mysterious new flagship monster, Arkveld ‘the White Wraith.’
The new locale was also teased in the trailer, showcasing the lush flora and fauna of the Scarlet Forest. With Monster Hunter: Wilds’ dynamic weather system, the forest will shift from danger to beauty in a matter of minutes. This opens new opportunities for hunting and gathering, as well basking in the sights.
A special Monster Hunter: Wilds showcase will also be present in this year’s Tokyo Game Show, unveiling new details about hunting and potentially the announcement of new monsters.
Monster Hunter: Wilds arrives this February 28, 2024 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC. Players won’t have to worry about playing in the same console anymore as Capcom recently confirmed that cross-play is available at launch.
